C doesn't have a good solution for non-blocking IO. Managing callbacks and their lexical scopes manually is quite painstaking.
User-level threads are non-standard, and ordinary threads are too heavy. All forms of threads lose much of C's benefit due to the relatively heavy stack allocation per thread.
